At VELUX Group level, employee Satisfaction & Motivation is in the medium range at index 66. Loyalty & Commitment results remain at a high level − index 73. Both results are above the general external benchmark but below the comparative result for “top-in-class” companies.
There are large variations across countries, companies/business units, departments and teams. In general, there has been a positive development in Satisfaction & Motivation for sales companies since the 2014 survey, while there has been a negative development for production companies.
The results have the attention of the management and it is a clear priority to follow up on all units and teams, especially in areas in need of improvement.
Next steps
The overall results of the Global Employee Survey reflect large variations across countries, sales
companies, production sites and functions and will be followed up by local action plans to continue the
work to make our Group an even better workplace.
A new global approach to people development will be rolled out in 2017 based on the principle of ‘career
clusters’. The tool identifies four career clusters: Professional, Specialist, Project Manager and People
Manager.
2017 will also see a focus to attract more talented graduates and early professionals.
